Bent But Not Broken

Da Goddess @ 15:12

Although, to be honest, I do feel as though something within me has been shattered into tiny little pieces. I’m pretty sure it’s my self-respect.

I should have done or said something sooner. I really should have. But, there are times when you go along to get along because it’s the safest route.

I don’t feel like playing it safe anymore, though. That scares me.

So, I retreat further inward. Few know the truth of what’s happening. The few who do keep encouraging me to run for the hills. Easier said than done.

For now, I wait like a patient cat stalking its skittish prey.

  4. Thank you, Pam!

    Jan, I’m trying. :)

    Crazy ass people chap my fucking hide, y’know?

    And I’m mostly mad at myself for not speaking up, not standing up for myself sooner. Mea culpa. Still, that’s not license for people to treat anyone like shit. I’m convinced crazy is crazy is crazy is crazy and I just happen to be a lightning rod for ’em. I’m working hard to change that, though
